The comission is representing the people. The people that dictate washington politics want to view wildlife not interact with it. They do not want to hunt or others to hunt. You want to fool fish into biting so you can penetrate their face and pull on them with sharp hooks... FOR FUN!?!? You must be a monster, right?

CM, I love the idea that the comissioners would represent folks from their geograpgic location. This could be a great way to embolden/present people, ideas, and actions that may not be represented or heard at the current table. The more you connect with people in the actual location of the wildlife you will have a better understanding of what is actually going on. Mountain Lions in wynoochee valley comes to mind. The residents in the valley are having their pets and farm animals preyed upon by cats. Several have made their voices clear that there is a problem, only to be ignored.

WDFW does not care!
